Official: 'Glee Project' renewed for bigger season 2

Guess those casting auditions went well. Oxygen has officially picked up Glee Project for a second season, and is making the show even bigger.

The reality competition, which started casting for a presumed new season last fall, will return this summer. Except this time, 14 contenders will compete instead of 12 like on the first season. The winner will receive a seven-episode arc on the Fox musical-comedy series. (Glee hasn’t been formally renewed for next season, but is expected to return.) Ryan Murphy, Dante Di Loreto, and Michael Davies are back as executive producers. Murphy, casting director Robert Ulrich, choreographer Zach Woodlee, and vocal coach Nikki Anders will once again serve as judges.
